[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

packers are prob gonna lock up HFA + bye

Saints get the 2 seed but due to new playoff rules they rest their starters

what does this mean? well instead of a qb how does an OG sound?

Saints likely don’t want the 3rd seed which is likely if they lose to us since Seattle is also 11-4. Saints don’t want to play on the road twice and if GB somehow got upset Seattle could host the NFC Championship instead of the Saints.

FYI The Saints can still get the 1st round bye even with a Packers win tonight (which still isn't guaranteed). If Packers, Seahawks and Saints all finish 12-4 the Saints would get the 1st round bye. They're going to play their starters against us.

The way we are playing, we could actually beat them at full strength.

Saints still have reason to play.

Packers still have to win next week

[LinvilleGorge]

Nah, they're gonna play to win. They still have a legit shot at the bye an they definitely don't want to end up the #3.

Tampa is less likely to play its starters against Atlanta than the Saints are against us. 

[Varking]

If the Saints win vs us, The Packers lose to the Bears, and Seattle wins next week then the Saints are the #1 seed. They want to win.

We beat Ron's Football Team that was playing backup QBs and now we think we can beat the Saints at full strength? LOLOLOL!!!

If the Saints want to win, we are done.

I hope the Saints have a reason to win otherwise bye bye good draft pick

Agree, though I think they'll play their starters too. The 5 seed is on the line and that's the difference between playing Green Bay/Seattle/New Orleans and the NFC East winner in round 1. Pretty significant game if you ask me, but I will never underestimate Bruce Arians' stupidity.

What was the score of the first Tampa game? Did we win the second game?
